The car does crank when I press the ignition start button. The indy shop told me they replaced the crankshaft position sensor when the original check engine light came on. The codes I was given are as follows: P1553, P0016, P0012. I recall my engine running rough on idle when the check engine light came on when all this started. To answer your thread title, the 528 is by far the most reliable. However there is no 528 in 2004 or 2005 so your choices are 525 and 530. I would skip the 2004. First year models are always the worst. If you take a 2005, you may want to go with the 530. Reliabilty between the two are about the same but more ponies in the 530 make it the better

Sometimes, the comfort access works, but you can’t use the lock / unlock buttons on the key fob. To fix this problem, replace the battery in your key fob.
